Default Just Something To Drool Over...

This was at our local thrift store yesterday. The price sticker says $350.

yes, very pretty but not worth $350 in Kansas, What is the decal set, anyone?

I believe that's the Persian decal. That's a gorgeous example but still not sure it's worth that much.

Gorgeous machine! If the cabinet was great, how would you feel about the price tag?

Nice decals and nice cabinets go in the $250.00 range here.

This one is missing the top, plus the wooden parts appears to be in poor condition.

I think that's the highest priced thrift store sewing machine price I've ever seen. Too rich for my blood. But I did go over and pet it. LOL!

Someone may have looked on e bay or an antique store for the price. The cabinet is in rough shape and missing parts but the machine looks good. I would have petted it as well.

To be honest I am not in the position to invest that much money into a sewing machine. The cabinet and machine would have to be restored to pristine condition for me to consider paying that price.
